Photography Question

Blurry photos with AE-1 continued 2

Blur problem
Canon AE-1, osawa 300mm lens, kalimar 28mm lens, 400 speed B/W film, 500 shutter speed, A aperture setting, 12:00pm, sunny

Here is an example of my problem with the blurriness. I used the "A" aperture setting, 400 speed, and 500 shutter speed due to sunny day, on all of the pictures I took, and they all turned out the same. 300mm osawa lens, 28mm kalimar lens, and a 2X teleconverter (that I only used on a couple of shots).

I used to have an osawa 135mm that worked fine. I'm thinking your 28 or your converter just isn't clear, but you got me unclear with your description of listing all three lenses, like you used them together.

Carl Smith 		  I am using these lenses at different times on the roll of film that this picture came from. I only used the teleconverter in 2 pictures. In this picture, I used the 28mm lens by itself. I use Wal-Mart for developing.
